Facilities that have residential beds for clients offer these beds so mothers can be in a secure place for their child/children while they're in the rehab that will save their lives and give them the chance to stay with their children. The flipside for these kids would be much worse in most cases, so it can help the woman and also the child, to have a secure place to stay and be together. Residential beds are available for women who are pregnant or postpartum and for children until the age of 5-6 yrs old.
How long one can stay in these residential type facilities can be different, and so can treatment services. For pregnant or postpartum mothers, beds are accessible but so are essential medical services that cater to these clients. If a woman may be pregnant, or perhaps breast feeding and postpartum, these factors are taken under advisement during and after detoxification to make sure the child is safe. As an example, a woman who is opiate dependent or who is getting methadone assisted treatment would be treated in a way which would keep the baby safe. Aside from the residential beds offered, many programs in East Ellijay have other services to help mothers get through rehab more easily like child care.
